            <h3>Description of Jane's Combat Simulations: AH-64D FX</h3>
            <div class="gameDescription dscr">
            <p>A very rare version of AH-64D contributed by Cary:</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>LongbowFX is a special version of Janes AH-64D Longbow released as bundled software with certain 3DFX video cards.  (I believe this one came in the Diamond Monster Fusion, if that matters.) It came out well before "Longbow Gold" was released, and was the first 3D-accelerated version made available.</p>
  
  <p>It is an abbreviated version of the full game, missing several of the full game's theaters.  It is, however, where the 3DFX-acceleration (later incorporated via patch into Longbow Gold, and built-in by default for Longbow 2) first appeared.</p>
  
  <p>The game is functionally identical to Longbow Gold (fully patched), except for the altered splash screen and the missing content (later theaters of action).</p>
  
  <p>Note that AH-64D Longbow comes on two disks, Longbow Gold comes on three, and LongbowFX is a single disk.</p>
  
  <p>The main purpose of releasing LongbowFX was to demonstrate the improvements of 3DFX's first-available hardware-accelerated 3D graphics over conventional (at the time) raster-rendered graphics.  For those who really enjoyed it (like me), purchasing the full game was an inevitable result. EA later used the same 3D engine update to create the 3D upgrade to "Longbow Gold." However, the copy protection on this is less stringent, so some people can run this while not being able to run LBG. And if you're not looking to play through every campaign, and just want to fly around and shoot things, this is every bit as good as LBG.</p>
  
  <p>These days, there's little reason for the hardcore flight simmer to choose this over the fully-upgraded, 3D-accelerated "Longbow Gold," but if you prefer just flying around without ever having to swap disks...  this is a great choice.</p>
</blockquote>

<p>The readme files states "Longbow FX was developed and tested exclusively for the Intergraph Intense 3D Voodoo video card.  Other 3DFX cards may or may not run Longbow FX."</p>        </div>
